Doesn't work

Nic Bunce, 2023-07-26

What a bunch of krapola... this app purports to be a direct line to the Oxford English Dictionary's NOW UNAVAILABLE website data, and instead, it annoyingly and self-servingly redirects any inquiry about any word to the damned dictionary.com that is universally hated.
